Tear Drops on my Car

“Tear Drops On My Car”

by: Jake Erkens

Thunder roars

Lightning strikes

The heavens open

Rain drops falling

You can call it a simile

Or even a metaphor

For it keeps raining on my car

Like everlasting tear drops in my heart

Never ending

Constant beating

Like the rhythm of my heart

So I write a song and play my guitar

Several tear drops

From my eye

Water rolls

Of my black dye

It runs like a river

But off my priceless car

Which I so adore

The rain, I abhor

For it ruins my day

And leaks into my car

So to the Lord I pray

And then I see a light, not too far away!
